Hi so recently an airsoft place was opened in Wigan, it so happens it is a short walk away and where I used to go the gym. I have always wanted to get into airsoft and well now i can.So I'm really sorry these questions are really dumb.

So the mill seems to have open days every other day or so which you can book. I'm guessing the days its closed are for private functions?

so when I look at the booking it says Mill slot hire and I can't find any information on what it is or whats included or anything any ideas?
Is there any way i could go down without booking just to have a look?

and what is the most common size in mm of BB used in airsoft?

I tried to join this forum for days and everything I put into that answer box was wrong until I just joined with Facebook.

So after playing COD etc for years and more recently PUBG, a few of us thought 'why not try airsoft and have a bash.' Little did we know that one of the UK's best regarded sites was 2mins from where we live! Always known of the base there but didn't know we could kit-up and run around it like Jason Bourne, (or more like Private Pyle, to be fair).

Anyway, I'm first to book and jump in - heading up this Sat 10th March on-me-tod, as it's still bit too chilly for me mates, p*****s.

Renting gear, but fully researched on airsoft goings-about, and especially etiquette - so really looking forward to it. Hoping to meet lots of nice folk ... who I can then chase and pretend to kill! Pretend - honestly!

Never done airsoft before, but have done a lot of shooting and section attacks back in the late '80s.

Am 43 years old now - is this too old to start airsoft? What is the age profile like?

Cheers.

Wanted to introduce myself. I used to do a lot of airsoft at MIA in North Devon. However about 7 years ago I moved to North Wales and have worked virtually every weekend since. So the airsoft died a death.

Been keen to get back into it for a long time and having checked out FAO it seems like exactly what I am looking for.

Will have some time off in January and can do weeknights. Can anyone recommend a good first event to come to based on that availability. I live about 40 min west of Shrewsbury but am able to travel.

Should be able to get the odd weekend off in the future but keen to get back into things asap.

I have my own kit but will probably hire a gun as after 7 years I need new batteries and to service them so would rather do a couple of games before emptying my bank account.

Hopefully see some of you fellas there, (I'll be the one with the Bolton Accent)

Hello,

me and my brother are attending the armoury this Sunday for our first air soft day. We are both enthusiastic about getting into the sport and are looking forward to meeting everyone.

I was just looking for some information on what type of clothes to wear, we don't have any camo yet but we have some hiking boots and suitable pants. Do we get given overalls or anything like that? Also will we need to bring anything other than suitable clothes and ourselves (obviously)?

I'm Jason. just wanted to introduce myself to anybody that might be there on Sunday and thanks for any information.

Hey everyone,

I'm getting back into airsoft after a hiatus, I used to be a regular at Hey Wood (Huddersfield) and had F&O membership there (fao6009). Could, I renew that membership?

Hello,

I am new to this forum and I would "LOVE" to know what the maximum FPS is for the sites.(The First and Only sites etc. Anzio, The Mill, The Bunker......)

Old player both at bolton woodlands many moons ago and at senny bridge also many moons a go i am a part of a team from lancashire that are more mates than a proper team we turn up shot and get shot at and have fun

I've had a long break from the sport due to becoming a Dad and moving house, but getting back into Airsoft again and glad to see i still have my account here

Was one of the early members of First and Only and had some great skirmishes at the old mill and Bolton woodland up in Egerton

Looking forward to getting back out again

Cheers

Thinking of getting back to a few games after around 11 years out...Needless to say alot has changed. Based in Blackpool so going to be popping to some of the northern sites in the near future...

Used to Play at lightfighter/sya and weekend games with stirling and then even further back down at Strines... Used to prefer CQB...Then I broke some bones and lost a few teeth and work/real life got in the way!

Going to venture into the attic to see what I still have but hopefully see some of you around..I'm a friendly guy so say Hi!!

Craig
